Pawnee Bill’s Original Wild West Show

Saturday, June 14, 2025
The Pawnee Bill Ranch and Museum celebrates Major Gordon W. “Pawnee Bill” Lillie, his wife May Lillie, and their famous Wild West Shows each June. Pawnee Bill’s Original Wild West Show is held at the original historic ranch site. Stagecoaches roll amid thundering horse hooves while the lightning of gunfire explodes around Pawnee Bill, May, and their cohorts as the talented performers thrill and amaze audiences. This celebration features exhibitions of acts from the original Pawnee Bill’s Historic Wild West Show.

Join us in celebrating Pawnee Bill’s Wild West Show and experience some of the best of historic western entertainment.
